In my opinion its networking. Find folks who work or have connections a company and make yourself know. What do you think?

Whether you’re a journalist, a rocket scientist, a ballet dancer or even a doctor, writing a blog can be an important tool to your everyday success.  There are many different types of blogs out there, which is why there is something for everyone.  Whether you choose to blog about your everyday adventures, your “likes and dislikes,” best travel spots, best restaurants, or even for the business you currently are employed at, blogging is a good way to put your thoughts down and share what you know with others.

For me, blogging for SDZR has shed light on many different social media sights, job related sites, and other useful sites that shared blogs I never would have seen or heard about otherwise.  They have shared many insightful tips and tools on how to be successful in everyday tasks, that of which I have  

A new White House report entitled, “Women in America: Indicators of Social and Economic Well-Being” addresses women’s present role in family life, education, employment, health, and crime in American society. The report, which is the first of its kind in nearly 50 years, also challenges researchers, policymakers, and advocates to do more to further the collection of gender-specific data in the future. It notes that women’s gains in education and increased participation in the labor force have not yet translated into wage and income equity; at all levels of education, women earned about 75 % of what their male counterparts earned in 2009. How do you feel about this statistic? I minored in Gender Studies at IU and so this particularly disturbs me, but I am not terribly surprised by my findings.

There is some good news; it’s not all bad. Women can most definitely follow certain strategies to ensure they aren’t put behind a man in the working  

How many pages is your resume? Was it engrained in your mind that your resume was to be one page only? I know the Career Services Center at Indiana University recommended mine only be one page numerous times when I was in Undergrad. They always said to include the most recent and relevant information and the rest they will find out when they interview you.

Well recently, many recruiters, hiring managers, and career coaches are encouraging people to go past one page if need be. Their argument is that in our digital age, going past one page only takes an extra stroke of a mouse. On average more than half of resumes are sent digitally now, rather than a snail mail paper copy being sent to employers.

Career coaches are encouraging people to “sell themselves” and if you have more qualities than one page, they’re saying…don’t sell yourself  

Advertisers and marketers spend thousands of dollars frequently coming up with the best new commercials, and billboards – and then, there is guerilla marketing.  For those of you who are not familiar with the term guerilla marketing, it is basically “an unconventional system of promotions that relies on time, energy and imagination rather than a big marketing budget.”  The idea is to create buzz through a more innovative and unique manner, and using minimal resources.  Regardless of your current work position, guerilla marketing is an interesting idea to become better familiar with, and in what better way then through examples.  The following are “10 Excellent Examples of Guerilla Marketing Campaigns (Videos)” as decided by the folks over at Mashable.com.  Everyone of these videos are simple, cheap and  

Blogging… it’s all about differentiating yourself from other bloggers. So I started to think are other bloggers my competition? And I decided most definitely! Someone may write a blog that’s more intellectual or funnier than mine. So what brings my family and friends to read my particular blog day in and day out? I think they hear my voice when they read and understand my tone. But some people read blogs of a complete stranger and still enjoy it. So if it isn’t my voice bringing them back…what is it?

I think everyone enjoys being apart of an “interactive conversation”. This is where multiple people come together, sharing their views on someone else’s random/chosen topic. It all comes down to sharing things you find interesting and collaborating with the online world. In a way we are all becoming journalists. And even after obtaining my Bachelors degree  in Journalism, I find others writers to be extremely interesting. Many of which have no Journalism background whatsoever! In fact they may just blog about common everyday happenings.

So what takes a blog to the next level? You have to start sharing knowledge that excites people and moves them to talk. You MUST create

Here at SDZR, we’ve really enjoyed what our friends over at RezScore have been up to.  Most recently they found out where the majority of their subscribers have found work. Specifically which websites they found useful. Drum roll please…the top five websites to find work, per Rezscore users preference are: Jibe, Doostang, TheLadders, AMightyRiver, and Dice.

Now it’s totally okay, if like me, you haven’t heard of any of these! Reason being is a few of these sites, if not all, require a membership fee and if you’re like me you only really use sites that are free. However I did graduate with a Journalism degree, specifically in Broadcast and so I did originally pay to subscribe to MeadiaLine.com. Guilty as charged!

To this day, when asked what my favorite job posting websites are based on preference, I always reference MediaLine. It is a great site for
